Q

Def hydrostatic pressure

A

Pressure developed by a column of liquid

17
Q

Newtons 1st law

A

Object in motion stays in motion and object at rest stays at rest till acted on by an equal or greater force

18
Q

Newtons 2nd law

A

The more mass the less accelerate, the harder you push the more accelerates

19
Q

Newtons 3rd law

A

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

20
Q

Distance def:
Symbol

A

The total length of the path an object follows
d

21
Q
  • Displacement def:
  • Symbol?
A

The straight line distance and direction from an objects starting point to its final position
d with line over

22
Q

V = d/t stands for

A

Average speed
Distance = speed / time
Average velocity
Displacement = velocity/time

23
Q

A = Vf - Vo / t stands for

A

A = acceleration
Vf = final velocity
Vo = initial velocity
T = time

24
Q

Velocity is speeding up if

A

A = + and v = +
Or
A = - and v = -

25
Q

g =
Sooo

A

-9.8 m/s^2
So always - on velocity

26
Q

Tension def:

A

Force through a “rope”

27
Q

V = VoT + .5 at^2 is for

A

Velocity as a unit of time

28
Q

V = Vo + at is for

A

How far have I gone in a straight line as a unit of time?

29
Q

V^2 = Vo^2 + 2ax is for

A

Velocity as a function of distance
